Feed Station

Description

The peloton passes through a feeding station (‘controle de ravitaillement’) in Morlaix during the 3rd stage of the 1930 Tour de France (Dinan-Brest). The aqueduct in Morlaix is a well-known landmark of France’s roman past. This Tour saw the innovation of a publicity caravan. It was initiated to fund the national teams which were introduced to counter the trade teams’ influence evident in previous Tours.
